Straw yellow, with stone fruit and citrus aromas and floral notes. On the palate melon, pineapple and pear, fresh & crisp with notes of honey and smoky oak, a bit creamy. Lingering finish with wet stone and minerality character, well balanced, stays crisp on ending. Nice!

Wowza - this has darkened & fattened up nicely - this is a hedonistic delight: all kinds of yellow stone fruit, dead sexy, coconut & beeswax, broad unctuous silky and absolutely delicious

Nice everyday chard from Costco — not too oaky.

One of my favorite Chardonnays. Easy to drink, flavorful without being oppressively oaky or buttery.

Perfect with sea bass and lobster risotto. Flavors of peach and honeysuckle with slight oak.

$19.94 7/2019 Specs. I like this Chardonnay! The nose is weak but it tastes smooth. With the right amount of dryness, its flavor wraps around the middle of the tongue. High acidity. Short finish.
